AFAIK the only clients are the official Windows app, and a Linux-only command-line/scripting interface. I have heard rumours that clients for other OSes are in the pipeline, but with no concrete dates or anything. Possibly they were shown at VMworld? -- Chris

Actually, they are for administering VMWare servers. A windows client exists, and there's a web client too, but even the web clients only do all their stuff under Windows because they need a Windows-only plugin. Daniele

I could never work out why they bothered doing a Windows+IE-only web client. If you're going to do a web client, you intend to support multiple platforms don't you? -- Chris |
